A collection of critical writings on music from the Nobel Prizewinning playwright behind Saint Joan and Man and Superman . The Critical On Music is a comprehensive selection of renowned Irish playwright and Nobel Laureate Bernard Shaws extensive writings on a wide range of musical topics. Still recognized as one of Great Britains most important music critics, Shaw enriched Londons musical scene for some twenty years with his provocative, original, and penetrating reviews, before giving up music criticism to concentrate his talents on playwriting. His vast critical output encompassed opera, operetta, vocal and orchestral performance, musical theater, and oratorios, and took in major composers and performers as well as many long since forgotten names. Frequently embellished by his controversial political and social opinions, and delving as well into the nature of music criticism itself, Shaws reviews continue to stimulate and surprise, their depth and range setting standards that are rarely, if ever, matched today. Included in this edition is a previously unpublished draft on voice training prepared by Shaw for Vandeleur Lee, his mothers singing teacher. The Critical Shaw series brings together, in five volumes and from a wide range of sources, selections from Bernard Shaws voluminous writings on topics that exercised him for the whole of his professional Literature, Music, Politics, Religion, and Theater. The volumes are edited by leading Shaw scholars, and all include an introduction, a chronology of Shaws life and works, annotated texts, and a bibliography. The series editor is L.W. Conolly, literary adviser to the Shaw Estate and former president of the International Shaw Society.
